OUR
STORY

Betco® was founded in 1950 by Carl and Ann Betz of Toledo, Ohio. With experience in the distribution industry, the Betzes realized they could provide customers with faster service and higher quality products than distribution suppliers could at the time. With this goal in mind, Carl and Ann established Betco Corporation and entered the cleaning and sanitation industry with two products.

In it’s early years, Betco generated a great deal of interest and successfully acquired 45 distributor partners at their first appearance at the ISSA show in 1954. Betco has grown exponentially and now offers hundreds of chemical and equipment solutions, comprehensive market programs and industry-leading training resources for end users and sales professionals.

Our Mission and Values

We didn’t become a world-class leader in facility solutions overnight. We take the time and energy to listen closely to distributor and end user’s needs in each market. Our mission to create cleaning innovations that matter for healthier environments is based on improving the way facilities approach their cleaning and maintenance programs. This can only be accomplished by manufacturing the very best solutions.

Safety – We emphasize our safety-first culture from beginning to end
Innovation – We challenge the status quo
Quality – We implement reliable processes to achieve superior results
Continuous Improvement – We have a relentless commitment to excellence
Accountability – We take ownership
